Discussion
Consider the following statements about cartograms.
1. A cartogram deliberately abandons true area in favour of a data value.
2. Readers unfamiliar with the region may fail to recognise it.
3. A cartogram removes the need to normalise the mapped data.
Answer: D
The first two are correct, and the second is the standard objection to the technique. The third is wrong: a cartogram already scales by a base such as population, so mapping a raw count on top of it would double-count that effect.
